Real World Lyrics

Music and lyrics by Alanis, Leslie, David Howe & Serge Cote 

We play the game with determination 
We don't give a damn 'bout our reputation baby 
It's not a game, it's a revelation 
Step inside the real world 
The real world...yeahyeahyeah... The real world...yeah... 

It's been every day now, and it just won't go away now...no 
Life is so intense now, not much common sense now yeah 
And late in the night I turn out my light yeah 
A song in my head, and it says "STEP INSIDE THE REAL WORLD" 

Chorus: 
We play the game with determination 
We don't give a damn 'bout our reputation baby 
It's not a game, it's a revelation 
Just another day in the real world...yeah, the real world 

I can make decisions with no one else believin' me 
I just look inside me 'cause I've got my own voice to guide me 
It came in a dream, a light so extreme yeah 
A voice in my head, and it says "STEP INSIDE THE REAL WORLD" 

Repeat Chorus 

Chorus: 
Ya gotta step inside the real world STEP-IN-SIDE-THE-REAL-WORLD 
I woke from the dream, I know what it means 
A voice in my head, and it says "YOU'RE HERE INSIDE THE REAL WORLD" 

Repeat Chorus (x2)
